The commands
CREATE_REPLICATION_SLOT slot_name LOGICAL output_plugin
DROP_REPLICATION_SLOT slot_name [ WAIT ]
START_REPLICATION SLOT slot_name LOGICAL ...
are used to create, drop, and stream changes from a replication slot, respectively. These commands are only available over a replication connection; they cannot be used via SQL. See for details on these commands.
The command can be used to control logical decoding over a streaming replication connection. (It uses these commands internally.)
